What is Law? Why is the study of Law Important in Nepal?

Law can be defined as a set of rules recognized by a particular state or community as regulating the actions of its members and which it may enforce by imposing penalties. It shapes politics, economy and society in a variety of ways. Law is the means to justice. In the absence of law, Society would turn chaotic and anarchical where peace and harmony cannot be enjoyed.

The term law is derived from old Teutonic root lag which means definite. Thus, the law is something that is uniform or fixed. There are different naming of law in different societies i.e,

  • Dharma-Hindu system
  • Hukum-Islamic system
  • Droit-French
  • Richt-German
  • Vidhi-Sanskrit
